Tortellini Marinara


So since I only used half a bag of tortellini for Ryan and I in the last recipe... I decided to try a new one last night with the last half of the bag! It was equally delicious and once again- super easy! Here's the recipe!

1pkg cheese tortellini
1 lb itallian sausage
1 pkg marinara sauce (we just used spaghetti sauce!)
1 can diced italian tomatoes, undrained (we skipped this step since the spaghetti sauce was already chunky)
1/2 lb sliced fresh mushrooms (we also skipped this one due to the lack of mushrooms in our fridge :( )
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

FIRST, cook tortellini according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain.
SECOND, stir in marinara sauce, tomatoes and mushrooms. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until mushrooms are tender.
THIRD, drain tortellini and stir into the skillet. Sprinkle with cheese and let stand until cheese has melted. Serve!

Bon Appetite!
